Effin stoopit.
So take direct taxation out of the equation and deal strictly with taxation on dollars spent.
I still blow more money than most and it’s taxed for whatever rate that is.
Just a season of snowboarding will cost me $20k-$30k. Gas, hotels, food, top shelf booze, airfare, women...
That’s before I take vacations, which cost $4-$10k
Then there is my clothing. You don’t want to know what I spend a year.
Then there are the dinners and while I love Mexican food I love places like Daniels, Veritas, Red-O, Ago, Gary Danko, Boulevard, Koi L.A., Coi San Francisco, etc.
The Hell the poor pay more!
Cars? 5, brand new. You think that maintenance bill is frickin cheap? Not on new cars and not on Mercedes or BMW. ..
Went to Carmel last week. Had a hamburger and fries while taking in the ocean breeze, atop a cliff and one mile from the Bixby bridge.
Ahhhh! I love that place. Bill for my afternoon of self indulgence? $186. Experience? Uhhhh...priceless and shared a glass if wine with a beautiful woman I met.
The poor pay more?
You are a fatuous idiot.
It doesn’t effin compute and makes no sense.
Whatever the point, F Chuckin Todd, was trying to make, arghhhhh. FU!
That made my mouth water.
